Chapter 306: Quest Preparation
Chapter 306: Quest Preparation
“Oww… That Alicia, she’s just ridiculously strong. Silvia. Make it better.”
No matter how I tried to run, there was no shaking Alicia when she was chasing me at full speed. In the end, I had no choice but to take the hit.
She’s a wild beast, I tell you. A beast.
“Y-Yes?! Uh, b-blow… ooh… ah…”
Silvia, Silvia. Did you really have to do it just because I asked? You’re so cute.
I ruffled her hair, stroking it messily.
We’d been sleeping together for several days now, so you’d think she’d be used to it, but Silvia still got so flustered she didn’t know what to do whenever I touched her.
At this point, I was starting to think that maybe this was fine just the way it was.
No matter how much she lost her composure normally, she was always on point during a battle.
“Alright, let’s get some sleep.”
We’d made our camp where the wyvern had nested and decided to stay the night before heading back to town.
It was still a bit early, but it seemed the wyvern hunt had been tough on the Arachne girls, too.
My skill had made the wyvern go berserk at the end, causing them to sustain injuries, so they were probably more exhausted than usual.
Which is why we were now in our tent after finishing our meal.
“Ah, ooh…”
Silvia blushed, her fingers fidgeting as she clasped her hands over her lower abdomen, probably thinking she’d have to be held by me again.
“Ah, don’t worry, we’re just sleeping tonight. Now that we’ve caught the wyvern, there’s no need to rush our leveling. We can finally get a good night’s sleep. Aren’t you happy?”
“Y-Yes…”
Silvia replied, her expression slightly crestfallen.
So it’s hard for you because you get so flustered when I hold you, but you’re also disappointed if I don’t? What a complicated girl.
I pulled her into my arms with a tug.
“Don’t be so relieved. I’m just not going to put it in. We’re still sleeping in an embrace.”
“Hahh… ah… I-If you do this… I-I can’t sleep well…!”
“Hm? I was talking about me getting a good night’s sleep. And if I sleep well, that makes you happy too, right, Silvia?”
“Aww… Y-Yeees…”
Silvia looked like she’d been tricked, her voice on the verge of tears, but she still managed to answer yes.
See? Teasing her is so rewarding.
Not that I’m going to let her go, though.
Warm and soft. Could there be anything better to hold while sleeping?
I turned onto my side, still holding Silvia tight.
That aside… what happened earlier was still bothering me.
Matilda and everyone else seemed to think it was business as usual and moved on, but it was definitely different from before.
Matilda had actually managed to confess all the way to the end.
Considering what I’d heard about the effects of Matilda’s curse, I should have definitely been affected this time.
Is my penis immune to that kind of curse?
But I’d always believed my abilities were limited to what was displayed in the game system.
I mean, I can’t even force my skills to be stronger by pouring more mana into them, even though it seems like everyone else can.
If I could’ve done that, I wouldn’t have had such a hard time with the wyvern.
Anyway, for someone like me, who’s so bound by the game system, to have an ability that isn’t even displayed in it?
No matter how I thought about it, that just didn’t seem right.
And personally, I don’t really want any unlisted abilities.
Besides, while a “hidden piece” might sound cool, if you can’t verify its capabilities, it’s just a useless power.
Especially since, with this kind of hidden piece, it’s not like I can just offer up my penis as a sacrifice to test its performance.
So, I opened my skill window again.
If there was a listed ability related to curse immunity, it had to be a skill.
There definitely wasn’t a skill like that in my original learnable skill list, but I’d already experienced acquiring a skill that wasn’t on the list.
Through Saint’s Sincerity.
If the ability that blocked Matilda’s curse wasn’t some hidden piece, then the most logical conclusion was that I learned a new skill the moment I was about to be cursed.
Let’s see. A skill I haven’t seen before… There really was one.
Indomitable Libido MAX
Passive Skill
A libido that yields to nothing will nullify any and all obstacles that interfere with sexual activity. Even if that obstacle is death itself.
Grants immunity to all damage received through sexual activity and all damage that would make sexual activity impossible.
And it was an incredible skill, at that. It was even at MAX level from the start.
Reading the description, I got the feeling that nullifying Matilda’s curse wasn’t the only factor that awakened this skill.
Actions to awaken this skill… Too many possibilities came to mind.
Having sex with the much higher-leveled Diana, risking death by overexertion.
Having sex with Leia, who drains her partner’s life force through the act.
And now, the crisis of being affected by Matilda’s curse.
I didn’t know which specific act had caused the skill to awaken, but one thing was now certain.
My penis is now invincible.
That’s my Goddess! My Goddess! I believed in you!
I knew there had to be a skill like this among the Saint’s abilities!
I will continue to believe and follow you! My Goddess!
Screw Iron Penis! I have Indomitable Libido!
The name was a little awkward to go around bragging about, but who cares?!
Huh? Wait a minute.
I got excited just reading the description, but thinking about it, something was strange.
Based on the description alone, it seems like it nullifies all damage to my penis. But if that were the case, it wouldn’t explain the pain I felt when I used Revived Pride right after Matilda’s confession.
I carefully read the skill description one more time.
Damage received through sexual activity and all damage that would make sexual activity impossible.
The former probably refers to things like the Gumiho’s life-force drain or death by overexertion, and the latter, in short, means it prevents me from becoming impotent.
To be honest, I don’t really need the first part. I can counter all of that with Healing Sex.
The latter part is what’s important. It prevents impotence. This had to be the most precious skill of all.
But thinking back to what happened earlier, it doesn’t seem to make my penis completely invincible.
Does it mean it only blocks damage that would rise to the level of making me impotent?
When I used Revived Pride after Matilda’s confession, it definitely hurt, but my Dick stood up just fine. Meaning, I didn’t become impotent. I still feel pain if my penis takes damage.
Y-Yeah, Iron Penis is the best, too. Sorry for saying screw you.
Indomitable Libido is the best, but Iron Penis is also the best.
They’re both skills the Goddess gave me, so I should cherish them both. Yep.
Anyway, with this, I no longer have to fear Matilda! My hard counter is finally gone!
And come to think of it, couldn’t I use this as proof of my Sainthood?
A penis unaffected by an ancient curse. They’d think it was impossible without the Goddess’s blessing.
Then Matilda would obediently acknowledge it and go back to where she came from… On second thought, no way that would happen.
Revealing this fact would be the same as telling Matilda it’s okay for her to openly love me.
Why would she even think of leaving my side then?
I’d become the only person she could love to her heart’s content. The one and only person that Matilda, who falls in love so easily, could love.
Yeah, openly showing this off seemed dangerous.
Of course, I’m not saying I’d hate having Matilda in love with me.
In fact, I could get some revenge for all the trouble she’s caused me, and besides, she’s a beauty.
What man would hate a beautiful woman who falls for him so easily? Especially with no risks involved.
If I weren’t already taken, I would have welcomed it with open arms.
But that’s the biggest problem.
If Matilda were in a situation where she could love me freely, she’d probably come on to me without caring who was watching. When she’s in love, she acts as if she’s oblivious to her surroundings.
And if my girls saw that, it would be more than just a simple disaster.
First Silvia, and now Matilda!
Of course, my girls wouldn’t start hating me, but their trust in me regarding my relationships with women would plummet to rock bottom.
Right. I should definitely keep this a secret.
But even if I couldn’t reveal it, I was still happy to have gained such a great skill.
I want to share this happy feeling with someone else!
“Silvia, are you asleep already?”
I asked deliberately, knowing full well she wasn’t asleep.
I mean, she was still trembling in my arms.
But Silvia remained silent, trembling, as if she had anticipated what I was about to do.
I brought my lips to her ear and blew a soft breath.
Silvia’s trembling intensified.
Oho. Still no answer, even after that?
“Are you really asleep? If you’re just pretending…”
“Uwaahh… I-I’m not asleep!”
In the end, Silvia succumbed to my slow pressure.
A lady knight who yields so easily to threats… I heard this kind of cliché was very popular at one point. Mostly in adult media.
The old masters really knew their stuff.
Well, Silvia probably only yielded so easily because it was me.
“Silvia. If you’re not sleepy yet, want to play with me a little more before we sleep?”
“W-What kind of…?”
I was just too excited to sleep, so I hadn’t really thought about it.
Normally, sex would be the best option, but I felt a little bad having sex with Silvia again after she’d been dealing with me for the past few days.
And I felt bad for the other girls, too.
But when it’s just the two of us like this, my mind can’t help but drift in that direction.
“Hmm. Ah, how about some special training to get you used to your erogenous zones?”
“W-What?!”
“Creating erogenous zones with Saint’s Holy Water doesn’t have any side effects. It’s training to help you get more used to the pleasure in your body.”
As I spoke, I sucked on my own finger, coating it with saliva activated with Saint’s Holy Water.
Come to think of it, I wonder how Felicia is doing.
I left her with Saint’s Holy Water in her mouth. Is she holding up okay?
Well, since I haven’t heard anything, she must be managing.
Anyway, right now, it’s Silvia time.
I slipped my hand, coated with Saint’s Holy Water, inside Silvia’s clothes.
First, I’ll apply it to the classic spot, her nipples. Good. Next, her private parts…
“Is my cutie sleeping?”
Just then, Lutia entered our tent.
Startled, I reflexively pulled away from Silvia.
It’s not like it was something I needed to hide. Come to think of it, the others must have known I was sleeping with Silvia.
“Oh my. You’re awake. I didn’t hear any cute moans, so I thought you’d gone to bed early. What’s with today?”
Dammit. Maybe I should have stayed close to Silvia.
Then Lutia would have read the mood and stayed out.
“W-What brings you here, ma’am?”
“Hm? Me? Isn’t it obvious… you know, don’t you?”
I have no idea?!
No. To be precise, I have a guess, but I really hope I’m wrong.
“It looks like you’re not doing it with her tonight, so how about a round with me? You must be feeling pent up if you don’t do it every day, right?”
As she said that, Lutia licked her upper lip.
Did she really come here to pounce on me?!
She’d been quiet at night for the past few days on our way here, so I thought she was just teasing me!
“N-No! Um, well, Matilda told me not to overdo it for a while, and I thought I should let my son rest a bit…”
“But it looks like he has a different opinion.”
Lutia said, pointing to my lower body.
Of course, my Dick was standing tall.
Well, of course it is! Lutia is leaning forward, shoving her cleavage right in front of my face!
It’d be weird if it didn’t get hard in this situation! It’s a natural physiological reaction for a man!
“N-No! He’s just going through a rebellious phase! Hey! Listen to your dad!”
“Kukuk. Could you stop being so cute? It’s just making me want to eat you up more.”
As she uttered the last words, Lutia’s voice turned a little more serious, and I got goosebumps on my arms.
Th-This woman… she’s serious! At this rate, I’m going to be devoured!
“You will not lay a single finger on Sir Guwon!”
But I had Silvia.
Yes! Silvia! Go!
“Oh my. Don’t worry, dear. I’m not trying to exclude you. I’ll be happy to dote on you, too. I have quite the reputation with the other ladies, you know.”
Saying that, Lutia reached out for Silvia’s breast.
“Who would let someone like you… Hnngh!”
Yes! My Silvia would never… I’m screwed! I just applied Saint’s Holy Water to her chest!
Don’t lose! Silvia! Endure it! You can do it!
“What cute breasts. Let me…”
“Lutiaaa!”
Just then, another intruder appeared in our tent.
It was Alicia.
“Oh my, Alicia. What is it?”
“You’re asking me that?! What are you doing here?!”
“Everyone keeps asking questions they already know the answer to.”
“Get out, now!”
“Hm? Oh my, Alicia, don’t tell me…”
Lutia then approached Alicia and whispered something to her.
“Th-Th-That’s not it! It’s just, today is, you know! That thing!”
“Huuuh… Alright. Let’s go. Sorry, cutie. Something came up, so I can’t play with you.”
Lutia suddenly changed her tune, leaving with those words as she exited the tent.
Wh-What? What the hell is “that thing”?! What could make Lutia back down so easily?
“And you, you bastard, you better watch yourself!”
For some reason, Alicia got angry at me too before turning to leave the tent.
I called out to her.
“Hey. Alicia!”
“What?!”
“Uh, I don’t know what that was about, but. Thanks.”
Whatever happened, it was clear that Alicia had helped me.
I expressed my gratitude to her.
“H-Hmph, as long as you know! Just… be good to me from now on!”
With only those words, Alicia stormed violently out of the tent.
